Pebble

The Pebble smartwatch was launched via Kickstarter in April 2012. The project had aimed for a goal of $100,000 but ultimately ended up raising over $10 million in total. The device has a black and white, e-ink display and currently works with Android and iOS (as well as other devices via third-party apps). There are a large set of watch faces and apps available free online, and Pebble will be launching their own App Store in 2014.

Pebble CEO Eric Migicovsky originally developed a BlackBerry smartwatch called InPulse before scrapping the project to develop the Pebble. Pebble began shipping units in January of 2013 and is currently available online via Pebble, Amazon and other retailers. It’s also available in brick-and-mortar Best Buy stores.

The "Subscribe to Topic" link outputs an RSS feed of SWF posts, not just articles about the Pebble. Can this be fixed? I don't care much about other smartwatches, but I'd love to keep up with news about my Pebble.

Thanks for your help, but the feed (http://www.smartwatchfans.com/node/7/topic-feed) is still displaying articles about the Galaxy Gear, BlueWatch, Echo, etc. However, I've since chosen to subscribe to the entire site feed to get quicker updates on Feedly, since there are more subscribers.
